Mounting the dressing tool

The correct way to mount the dressing tool is to put it at minimum overhang to avoid vibration and never mount in an oversized hole.

 

Coolant

Dress dry when the grinding gets dry and dress with ample amount of coolant during the grinding cycle.  Be careful not to turn the coolant on if the dressing cycle started to dry as the thermal shock may fracture the diamond.


The role of Diamond Dressers in Precise Grinding

Diamond dressers regenerate the cutting ability of the grinding wheels. This process is basically called the dressing. It involves the processes of truing and conditioning which serves the tasks of forming and restoring the original figure of the grinding wheels. Hence, the most basic function of dressing is to bring back the shape of a wheel to its original form and getting hold again of its cutting edges.

Just like the diamond tools, Diamond dressers vary depending on the desired role it has to play a part of. Consequently, single point dressers, profile dressers and other types are designed and manufactured joint making a steel shank.

Single point dressers are pencil-like tools that can be modified according a specific demand but this type of tool is basically used for straight and simple form dressing application. Another type are the forming dressers. This tool is specifically made to attain certain accuracy in terms of angles and radii which is taken into consideration in contour dressing system, CNC operations and the likes. There are other Diamond dresser available in the market. Just be sure to point out how it’s going to be used to take the right tool that is needed.

Diamond dressers maximizes the full potential of the grinding wheels to produce quality work pieces.

The quality of a diamond fluctuates from the finest pure crystal to the most low-graded crystals.  Cracks, impurities, and flaws can be considered as factors that can degrade the quality of a diamond.  The most well-known diamond dressers are Single Point Dressers and Profile Dressers that are utilized for huge grinding wheels, blade-shaped dressers and hand dressers.

 

Single point dressing tool applied for dressing straight grinding wheels as well as operating simple profiles, thread and gear grinding.  On the other hand, profile dressers applied for straight and profile dressing.  Other common dressers available in the market are multi-point/impregnated dressers, chisel and cone profile tools, and PCD form dressers which applied to meet customized requirements.

 

<a href=“goldtechnic.com/products/diamond-dressers/”>The single point dressers</a> are available in resettable and non-resettable formats.  The diameter size of ¼” or 6.3mm to ¾” or 19mm, up to 6” or 150mm long.  The resettable dressers are great for use on very hard wheel, SG wheels,  profile grinders, and thread or gear grinders.  They are also best to dress small internal grinding wheels.  While the non-resettable dressers are perfect for toolroom grinders, burr grinding wheels, centerless regulating wheels, as well as other general purpose work.

 

The recommended dressing tool types also differ based on the diamond grades.  The recommendations are as the followings:

 

  1. 4 resettable points

“A” quality dresser is recommended for hard wheels or when very fine finishes and close tolerances are required, such as thread, bearing and gear grinding.

 

  1. 3 resettable points

“B” quality dresser is reccommended for demanding requirements and close tolerance work.

 

  1. 2 resettable points

“BC” quality dresser is recommended for average grinding conditions.

 

  1. 1 resettable point

“C” quality dresser is reccommended for general purpose works, yet still resettable.

 

  1. Non-resettable

“NR” dresser is good for other general purpose work which required non-resettable dressing tools.
